  1. I thought your presentation was very interesting to learn about. I thought it was very cool to learn that Jay Z and Anonymous supported the Occupy Wall Street movement. The part I liked best about your presentations were the pictures of Anonymous. I think I would have liked to see more photos of the police brutality, but overall I really liked the presentation.

  2. I really liked your presentation. I thought it was neat to learn more about. One thing I really loved about your presentation was all the pictures. I really liked the picture that was labeled "Human need not corporate greed". It really stood out to me and I think it was an excellent picture to use for what you boys were talking about with the Occupy Wall Street. One thing I would like to of maybe seen was some more facts on your powerpoint. You had excellent information it just would have been nice to see some written out. But overall, nice job!

  3. I really liked how you guys were able to incorporate so many pictures in the presentation, and still explain them by memory. I really liked how you guys explained the meaning behind "We are the 99%", as I'd heard that before but never really understood what it meant. I also really liked how you guys incorporated celebrity support and the support from the Anonymous group. I think you guys really knew your stuff and that absolutely showed through your presentation. I think the only thing I would've liked to see, like Brent said, would be more pictures about police brutality just to enforce how aggressive they were towards the people. Aside from that, good job!

  4. I thought your presentations were very interesting to learn about. Prior to this I only knew a little bit about Occupy Wall Street so having you guys teach this topic to the class helped me gain more knowledge. I really liked the video that you incorporated into the presentation to show how the movement has moved around the world to places like Australia (this was something that I didn't know about). The only thing that I would have like to seen is if the people are targeting specific people about their issues. I know that they focus on Wall Street but were there any names of the one percent that they were calling out to make a change? Overall great job on your project!

  5. I didn’t know anything about Occupy Wall Street until your presentation. I found this topic to be interesting and I liked how many people were a part of it. I liked you video of that showed what was going on. You comparing it to Hong Kong really helped me understand it more because earlier this semester we had to learn about it. You also showed other protest that were going on other places in the world. The only thing I would change is add pictures or media of the brutality that you talked about so that the audience could feel more for the people protesting. I really liked your presentation and it made me want to look up more about it out of class.

  6. I had never heard of occupy wall street until this presentation. It was very interesting how you compared it to the Hong Kong protests. It is amazing how much good social media can actually do. If I had to tell you one thing to improve it would be that you were able to actually show us the videos you wanted to. Other than that, your points and reasons were very on point.

  7. I did like what you said during the presentation about what the people involved in this protest wanted, which is to do what you love and be able to work. I also liked the quote "We are the 99%." You talked of a comparison to protest in Hong Kong. It would've been more interesting to see some more videos,but overall this was a good presentation.

  8. I really liked the slogan "we are the 99%" and the passion behind the protest. I also really enjoyed hearing how it also inspired other movements and protests for the average person. It is also interesting that celebrities are supporting the movements as well. I liked how you also compared this movement to the movements that are happening in Hong Kong, Its all about people creating change.

  9. Your subject was very interesting to me. I had never heard of this before you guys told us about it. I found it entertaining how they did not have any demands because they ended up with too many supporters. I felt like you guys covered your topic well, but I did not get why it was iconic.

  10. This is something that I have heard about but did not really know what it was truly about. I like how you connected it to the Hong Kong protests. I like when a group of people stands up for what they feel is right. You guys talked very intelligently and knew your material. I did not, however, catch why it was iconic. What came out of the rally? Did they change society? Other than that great job.

  11. I really liked how well you knew your facts. The pictures you used were really effective. You dd a good job of explaining why it was iconic and I really liked how you used the slogan. If I had to add one thing it would maybe be including a few more pictures. I really liked the presentation. Great job!

  12. Something I learned and found interesting was the fact that they couldnt protest on wallstreet because it was considered loitering, and moved. It seemed like you guys enjoyed your topic and learned a lot from it. The only thing I would change would be to go into more detail about why it was iconic,and what resulted from it.

  13. I like how you us us what we learned about hong kong and how its mostly done through cell phones now. One thing that i would do differently would be was really talk about how it was iconic and why it stands out in american history and present.

  14. It is interesting to see a huge protest like this. I liked how you guys explained how the protest was organized and carried out. I would have liked to know more behind the ideas and objectives of the protest as to know why it organized in the first place.good job

  15. What a board topic, and I think you guys tackled it quite well. I enjoyed the video, it really cleared things up for me, because at times, since it was such a board topic, I became confused. It helped that you guys did go in a chronological order and I liked how both of you seemed educated and passionate about the topic. It is amazing what goes on this world, and because I never watch the news, I have never heard of this before. It is very righteous and at times, crazy seeming but amazing how it has spread the world. At times I became confused on what the protest actually consisted of, what they were fighting for, and why they were unable to stand on Wall Street sidewalks. Some clarification on the background story, would have helped a bit. Overall though, you guys did a great job at explaining such a huge topic.
